Baking and writing. I love to do both. You know, if I could write as well everyday, (I can't) I could go to work for Saturday Night Live.

We 3 gmas baked together
Forums:
We 3 gmas baked Savory Drop Biscuits from "Bread Alone" , by Daniel Leader and Judith Blahnik... although none of us dropped them, we all shaped them because we tend to think in Sandwiches... The recipe is an easy one on page 309 of this book... onion, rosemary... sauted together and then basically added to a buttermilk biscuit dough... very, very good.

Soda bread calzone - done in thirty minutes, or so
Forums:
Made a couple of these, today - one using self-raising white flour for my daughter, and one with wholemeal bread flour and baking powder for myself.
It's a simple matter of knocking up a quick soda bread, rolling it out flat, covering it with the filling of your choice, folding it over and frying both sides in a dry frying pan (covered).
Simply gorgeous!

Fairy Godmother's Banana Bread
Forums:
A few years ago I met my Fairy Godmother, and she offered to grant me three wishes. She told me that the wishes had to be personal, that is, not things like feeding starving babies in Africa or the MN Vikings winning the Super Bowl. Fairy Godmother explained that the babies and Vikings had their own fairy godmothers, (some obviously better than others), and they were careful not to step on each others toes, so to speak. She also warned me that each wish would be granted with a provision.

The Elusive perfect biscuit recipe
Forums:
Forgive me if I've posted this in the wrong place or category. I was taking a break from a sewing project this morning and was reading an older discussion regarding real southern biscuits that mentioned the Loveless Cafe.( I had never heard of it nor seen any of the videos of the famous Carol). After I created an account I was unable to reply to the original of that thread so maybe it's closed. -- Anyway, I also have tried for years to make the perfect biscuit to no avail.

Would anyone happen to have a recipe for St. Michael's Bannock they've tried and would be willing to share? I tried this recipe I found online and it didn't turn out so great: http://www.silverspider.com/magbo/st_michaels_bannock_recipe.jpg

Is "sucanat" the same thing as that raw sugar in a box?
Forums:
I looked up "sucanat" and found its a brand name (correct?) (i googled it)
soooo.. my question is... is "suagar in the raw" in the brown box, the same thing???
thanks!
(wal mart doesn't carry "sucanat" but it DOES have sugar in the raw, and I want to try whole wheat choc chip cookies!)
TIA!
